COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTIONWhile pilsner is the most popular beer style in Poland, Browar Fortuna has refused to follow the crowd. One gulp of "Miłosław" is sufficient to realise that it is not just another lager. Its different flavour and aroma is attributed to the open fermentation process, as well as the varieties of hops used in its production. They are used by the so-called craft breweries, which target their unique products at smaller, yet extremely loyal groups of consumers on the lookout for something different in the world of beer.

Botltle. A golden pils with a frothy head, with an unexpectedly hoppy aroma, for a Polish lager that is. The somewhat piney hoppy aroma manages to outweigh the partly soapy maltiness, and even the small amounts of diacetyl fit in good with the rest. Light to medium body, tastewise this is a Bohemian style pilsener with a solid biscuity malty base, piney hops retronasal and quite a strong bitterness - again, for a Polish lager, that is. A pleasant surprise.

Undeniably different, undeniably quality, but the type of off-sour hops used makes for an unpleasant aroma upon opening, and then oddly fades to chalky. Appearance is a deep rich amber. Taste=serious hops, making this as much an English ale in character as it is a pilsner. Not my favorite style, so not high on the hedonism scale, but am very interested in someday trying this brewery’s other stuff
